Toasted Bagel Café

This bagel shop (on Westerly Parkway) used to be great, but over the last year consistently messes up my order. For instance, I just paid for a bagel with a specialty cream cheese and received plain cream cheese instead. This happens frequently. They also put hardly any cream cheese on the bagel. I started asking for extra cream cheese to compensate and they put slices of cheese on top of the cream cheese! I love bagels and really want to support this business, but after giving them the benefit of the doubt for a year, I don’t think I will be returning.

I swear I'm addicted to this place. If I'm looking for a quick breakfast to get my day started, then you better believe I'm gonna be stopping here. My order? Oh, that's easy. I get a Taylor ham egg and cheese on an everything bagel with a side of home fries.

Worst customer service experience I have had in PA. Front counter female employee has an extreme attitude and when an order was messed up, she told us it was our fault for confirming it (she didn’t try to do this herself). She also would not let us throw out the incorrect order inside. Just disappointing and upsetting.

Edit: the comment from management is about something I did not experience. We were given the wrong bagel and when we told the employee this, she told us it was our fault. All we wanted was to get the order fixed! (we ordered a cinnamon bagel with strawberry cream cheese and they put lox cream cheese on it....they look similar but are not at all! all we wanted was for it to be corrected and to be treated fairly).

The bagels are very flavorful and fresh. Also they have a great variety as well as they make their own cream cheese spreads. Also great breakfast and lunch bagel sandwiches. Only gave it 4 stars because it is pricier than other places. So if you don't mind spending a little more this family owned cafe is your place for a great bagel. Also it has inside seating.

I go here often and I've never had a bad experience. The food is great and the staff is friendly, polite and efficient. The only con is sometimes the line is long because so many people go at once. (Happens to every restaurant when they donangood job.) However, even if there is a line they do a great job of getting your order out quickly! I always recommend bagel crust to my friends and when people ask me about breakfast spots.

A local breakfast staple. The atmosphere is adorable, the people are kind and helpful, and the food is incredible. Get a breakfast sandwich on an Asiago bagel and thank me later. Smoothies and coffee creations are also delicious here. Not a ton of indoor seating but there’s almost always just enough, with outdoor seating when the weather is nice enough. A little pricier than other places, but that’s to be expected from a small family-owned business - and you definitely get the taste you pay for!

Been there a couple times now. I give them an average rating for two reasons. The first is that I recall both times feeling like the quality of the fare wasn't quite up to a Panera or a Pump Station. That made my rating low. The second is that there is so much potential here if only the preparers would take a tad more thought over what they do. Thus, hope (which springs eternal) makes my rating higher.

Hot things should be hot and cold things cold. If you ask for a simple toasted bagel with an average spread of cream cheese, be sure to say to the person who takes your order that toasted means you slice the bagel first and then caramelize both the insides making them crisp. Toasted does not mean browning just the outside of the bagel and then slicing it, further chilling it with a too large ice cream scoop equivalence of refrigerated cream cheese. (Ugh)

There is more I could suggest. But let's leave it at that and see if things improve. I intend to be a regular customer and so do wish for this quaint little operation to succeed!

Excellent little spot in town for breakfast sandwiches. Taylor ham!

Fantastic food. The bagels are hard on the outside while being succulent on the inside! Sometimes they have special stock. Like, chocolate strawberry hearts for Valentine's Day, blue and white for PSU weekends, and pastel rainbow bagels intermittently through the year! (I've been to the place in Brooklyn everyone raves about with the rainbow bagels, these are better). My favorite sandwich is the steak, egg, and cheese

Great quality bagels and very friendly staff! Excellent spot for an outdoor brunch on a nice day.
